let me know how your making out. How old are you if you don't mind me asking? I have many other contacts including a buddy of mine that has 2 trucks sitting but he is kinda weird about other people driving his ####. How good would you say you are at driving 8ll or 10 speed manuals? you can send private message if you want.

 

Nice, Schneider was my first choice for OTR. They are definitely a company I want to keep on my radar at the very least. Didnt know they did box trucks though! Thanks for the tip!

 

Temp services that hire cdl drivers have some good leads also.
Centerline Drivers is one, but Google will show several.
With temp services you can pick and choose the jobs they have available. On your future resume you only show working for the temp service, not the various trucking companies they assigned you to. This way, you don't look like a job hopper because you only worked for the temp service.

 

Schneider box truck jobs are growing fast. When they purchased Watkins-Shepard, they also got their box truck accounts. Must be lucrative because they're expanding and buying more box trucks and cargo vans.
Fastenal is nationwide and has box trucks, cargo vans, tractor-trailers. Probably can transition from box trucks/cargo vans to OTR in tractor-trailers when your situation allows it.

Didnt think of the temp route, very good tip. You are a wealth of info!

 

I drove a Class B for 3 years after getting my Class A, never drove a Class A at all after going through school. I had no problem getting hired as a Class A driver many years later though I had to go through the company training program.
